Well, this was the case with this shopping centre, especially if you don' happen to own a car. The other thing is that the lifts from the carpark are awfully slow. However, on the bright side, they do have a nice area up on the roof which has been converted into an entertainment district.

*This review is geared more towards Americans but can be for anyone not from this area*…read more This is like Mall of America. It's huge! There are about 3 super large floors. I would suggest taking the bus or the train to Westfield (There is a bus stop right outside the entrance and a train station right about a good 5-minute walk from there) You could drive but the parking garage on a weekend is like typical mall traffic during Black Friday but worse. We went on a Saturday before and it took us about an hour to park. I'm not lying. ONE hour to find a parking space. The entire bottom parking garage is reserved for the valet/car wash service. Traffic is also one way so everyone leaving the parking garage has to get into the line with everyone looking for a parking spot. They have a little thing that tells you how many spaces are available on each floor but that won't matter because it's going to take you forever and a day to get to the next floor. Enough about the parking, let's get into the actual mall itself. The mall is like a one stop for everything you may need. There are two food courts (The huge one near the ALDI's and a mini one in front of the woolsworth) The little mini food court has a mini farmers market like set up there as well. Yes people can grocery shop at a mall and they do have cool escalators for your shopping cart. If you need a OPAL Card, which is the bus/train card, you can get one at the Woolsworth Customer Service if you just got into Sydney and didn't get one at the airport. I would suggest checking the directory just to see the "YOU ARE HERE" circle. I have gotten lost many times in the mall just because it's so huge. Thankfully there are tons of comfortable seating because your feet will hurt. Mall hours (or trading hours) are not like what it is in the States. The mall is open from about 9:30 am to 6pm except for Thursdays when its open till 9pm. These are just for the stores, the restaurants and the movie theater have different operating hours just like in other malls. Those restaurants and the movie theater are located at the very top. They have separate parking for those but I would still suggest taking Uber/bus/Train anything but a car if you don't know where you're going. Be sure to check out the very large tree that is in front of the woolsworth area. At night all the really loud birds go there and you can hear from quite a distance. Overall this mall is a great way to get some exercise in and a great way to spend the day.

With a target, myer and all the regs shops with a medical centre and lots of health services available, it is the perfect place for seniors or bargain hunters.

This is one of the bigger malls in the Shellharbour/Illawarra area with over 200 stores. Parking is…read morequite easy (covered and outdoor parking) and there are parking spaces nearer the mall which have a 3 hour time limit on it, the rest will be for as long as you need. Parking is still free which is useful. You get a good mix of fashion retail shops, food, supermarket and departmental stores. While the mall hours are the usual 9am to 5pm or thereabouts, the supermarkets (Coles and Woolworths) and Target and K-Mart open earlier and close later at 10pm. I must confess I shop more at Target, K-Mart and supermarkets because of the hours. There is also a fish market which sells a large variety of fresh fish and seafood like lobster, crabs, prawns, oysters etc. The prices for raw oysters are also much lower than you will get in Sydney city. I love the coffee emporium which does a good coffee and hot chocolate and pastries. Simply perfect for a pick me up. The place is huge and does not feel claustrophobic crowded even when there are many people on a weekend. This is a decent mall with almost everything you need.

STOCKLAND SHELLHARBOUR - 211 Lake Entrance Rd, Shellharbour NSW 2529 (AUSTRALIA)…read more Why shop at Stockland Shellharbour? It has everything at the one location and under the one roof. Not only do they have major stores like Myer, Target, Kmart, Best & Less and two major supermarkets Coles and Woolworths, they also have over 250 specialty stores! If you can't find what you're looking for here, then you won't be able to anywhere else. What is more inviting is that they have over 3000 outdoor and indoor FREE parking spaces for your convenience - you can't beat that! People near and far travel here because of the FREE parking. What impressed me the most, but only discovered it by luck really? They have thought ahead into the future, not only do they have solar panels and wind turbines, to reduce their carbon footprint, they have also installed FREE Electric Car ChargePoints! Yes... you read it correctly! I only discovered this hidden treasure during one of their busy times (their busiest times are during the festive seasons or public holidays) when I couldn't find an indoor parking, so I drove to the 'Level 5 Rooftop' car park. And there it was, four Electric Car ChargePoints - side-by-side for those who have electric cars. To make your shopping experience a lot more pleasurable, people with toddlers, may hire 'Kidz Kabs for FREE. For the adults who are disadvantaged with mobility, they too can hire Motorised Scooters or Wheelchairs for FREE as well. Just go to 'Customer Care' to hire one for the day. Of course after a full day of shopping, you would like to wind down, there are so many places you can do that and refuel at the same time. For those with children, try 'The Coffee Club' (located on Level 1) or 'Fibonacci Coffee' (located on Ground Level). Children will be busy entertaining themselves while playing at 'My Funland' area you can have that deserved break while watching them at the same time. Service? Unbeatable! With friendly, knowledgeable people and friendly service to go with their smiles! The latest addition (September 2016) at Stockland Shellharbour is this amazing 20 metre high mural completed by two artists - Claire Foxton and Mikey Freedom. They have brought colour to this place. Their mural is to represent the region, people and lifestyle - I believe they delivered just that. And just behind this amazing mural is the new additional dining precinct. Grill'd - must taste their amazing burgers, they cater for the vegetarians and meat eaters. I highly recommend you try their hot chips - don't know which one to choose? Why not try 'Chips Share Plate' where you get to have the potato, sweet potato and zucchini chips served with three chip dips - sweet chilli mayo, hot chilli mayo and herbed mayo. Then there's Lone Star Rib House where you can sink your teeth into mighty tasty steaks and ribs - so succulent and tender! Now I am waiting for the opening of Chong Co Thai Restaurant sometime in October - I cannot comment on their food but I'm pretty sure this new addition to the food precinct won't be a disappointment.

There are also a heap of ready made food outlets, Bread Top, Donut King and sushi, and also several cafes including a gozleme shop!!! (Which is also excellent) The food outlets have all opened in the last couple of months and there is a surprising range. There's also a $2 shop, nail salon, dentist, acupuncture place and Priceline. There is a Chinese grocer upstairs and I think the old Spotlight might still be there too. The reason the 5th star is missing from this review is the fruit n veg market. That place lacks a distinct standard of quality that Sydney Siders are used to, and frankly the fruit and veg there is appalling. I'm surprised it's survived and it really is the missing link in what would otherwise be the best shopping centre from Parra to Burwood - and it's quiet enough to always get a park (unlike the other 2 Westfields). Amazingly close for residents of Newington and SOP.
